A classic problem 🤔 for beginners is how to conduct the chess opening. You can’t be expected to memorize tens of thousands of lines just so you get to the middlegame alive and avoid all the chess opening tricks. But you can sidestep chess opening traps and get a great position with a sound chess opening strategy built on the major chess opening principles.
And you won’t get many better teachers than the 12th World Champion Anatoly Karpov and “supercoach” GM Roman Dzindzichashvili! Karpov was World Champion for 10 years after the Fischer vs Karpov match that never was. Anatoly Karpov also has the most elite tournaments wins of all time and continued to challenge the next generation with the Anatoly Karpov vs Magnus Carlsen game.
For Anatoly Karpov chess is “everything: art, science and sport” and it’s this all-encompassing thinking that leads to his pure, effective approach to playing chess.
In this chapter from their “Opening Fundamentals”, Anatoly Karpov and Roman Dzindzi break down the basics of playing chess openings for beginners, specifically examining main lines in the Ruy Lopez opening and Scotch Opening.
Whether your aim is to become a chess opening pro or just score the occasional chess opening quick win, Karpov’s chess opening strategy will have you making rapid improvement. And Roman Dzindzichashvili’s chess philosophy is “if you can’t explain it, you don’t really understand it” which is why he loves teaching chess so much: he helps himself improve as well as his students!
GMs Karpov and Dzindzichashvili emphasize controlling the center squares (e4, d4, e5, d5) and active development of minor pieces in the opening, while being careful not to make too many pawn moves. Karpov’s incredibly deep understanding of chess combined with GM Dzindzichashvili’s vast experience in chess coaching makes the “Russian School of Chess” a truly unforgettable chess training experience.

Viriatovitch always liked this! Cheers!
I checkmated a guy once just by castling queen-side.
Karpov, the gentleman of Chess.
Very instructive, indeed!
Karpov is the first person I've heard correctly pronounce Ruy Lopez.
This is why Karpov is a better man than Kasparov. I would love to be taught by Karpov.
I like this Socratic style of teaching chess. Amazing!
Literally a Master Class from genious Karpov. 👏👏👏
Playing to these rules is too ridged. Sacrifice a bishop to get rid of a key pawn an these players get a real head ache. Be unpredictable. There are no mistakes.
Only truly great people know how to be humble. For somebody as legendary as Karpov, one of the greatest players the world has ever known, to explain things in such a simple way blew me away.
Boring ad fuck but good advices.
Chess Legend A.Karpov teaches chess openings very patiently. Great video. Karpov my ever time favorite!
Terrific job from both parties. This video should be obligatory literature in every chess school around the globe !
This is just the video I was looking for. Not about "what to do" but "why to do it" ! Thanks for sharing
Awesome videoooooo!!!!
This was brilliant! I would love more of this! It's amazing to see you two just sitting there discussing all of this! It's very personal and I really would love more of this type of thing where we hear input from both players and dissecting all the plans and strategies! So informative!!!! Thank you so much for this! Love you both!

Karpov is my favourite chess player. Top quality, no controversies, and a gentleman.
Oh yeah Karpov knows little bit about openings and yet he is world champion

Karpov is such a cute man.
